AI assistants

MCP server.

La Grande Carte’s French public open data, right inside your assistant: communes, cadastral parcels, natural risks, urban planning, property sales, tap-water and air quality, crime… Read-only, official sources.

Server URL.

https://lagrandecarte.fr/mcp

Connect from your assistant.

  1. In Claude: Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector. Elsewhere (ChatGPT, Cursor, Le Chat…): look for “custom connector” or “MCP server”.
  2. Paste the URL above and start the connection.
  3. Your assistant opens La Grande Carte: sign in or create an account (free, email or Google).
  4. Click “Allow”. An API key “MCP · …” is created on your account; revoking it from your account disconnects the assistant.

With an API key.

For clients that accept a header (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code…), create a key from your account. Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http lagrandecarte https://lagrandecarte.fr/mcp \
  --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY"

JSON configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lagrandecarte": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://lagrandecarte.fr/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_KEY"
      }
    }
  }

Limits and data.

Every tool call counts as one request against your account’s quota. The free plan includes 100 requests a day for non-commercial use; paid plans cover commercial use. Data under the Etalab Open Licence 2.0: credit “La Grande Carte”.

Your assistant only sends us tool parameters (a commune, an address), never your conversation. Privacy policy.
